Privacy

Privacy policy

This policy explains how Leadsource International Manager Limited (NZBN 9429047325371), trading as Mr Business Loans ("we", "us", "our") handles personal and business information when you use this website or enquire about business finance. We manage personal information in line with the Privacy Act 2020 and its information privacy principles.

Information we collect

We only collect what we need to understand your enquiry and help arrange business finance. That can include:

  • your name, phone number, email address and role in the business;
  • business details such as your NZBN, IRD number, business name, structure, industry, trading history, region and monthly revenue;
  • how much you want to borrow, what it's for and when you need it;
  • details of any property you may offer as security, including ownership and existing lending;
  • your tax position, including any amounts owing to Inland Revenue and any instalment arrangement;
  • identification documents, bank statements, financial statements and details of existing debts;
  • credit information, once you decide to proceed; and
  • information about other people connected to the application, such as co-directors, partners, trustees or guarantors.

Most information comes directly from you through our online enquiry form, by phone or by email. We also record how you found our website (for example the page you first landed on and the page you enquired from) so we can understand which information is useful. With your authorisation we may obtain information from credit reporters, identity and bank-statement verification services, public registers such as the Companies Office, the NZBN register and Land Information New Zealand, and professionals you nominate, such as your accountant or lawyer.

How we use it

  • to respond to your enquiry and talk with you about suitable finance options;
  • to assess and arrange business finance with the lender best suited to your situation — we don't send your details out to a long list of lenders;
  • to verify your identity and the details you give us;
  • to meet our legal obligations, including anti-money laundering requirements where they apply;
  • to run our business, keep records, handle complaints and improve our website and services; and
  • to tell you about other business finance options that may suit you — you can opt out at any time.

Who we share it with

To arrange your finance we may share information with the lender and funders involved in your application, related finance businesses that assess and settle business loans, credit reporters (only once you choose to proceed), verification providers, valuers (for property-secured loans), lawyers, professional advisers, our IT and service providers, and government agencies where the law requires it. Some providers may store data outside New Zealand; where that happens we take reasonable steps to make sure your information is protected to a comparable standard.

Your authorisation

When you submit an enquiry you authorise us to collect, use and share your information for the purposes in this policy, and to contact you by phone, text and email about your enquiry. Enquiring doesn't involve a credit check; we'll ask before any credit check happens.

If you give us information about someone else, such as a co-director, partner, trustee or guarantor, you confirm you're authorised to do so and that you've told them about this policy.

Security and retention

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorised access, use, change or disclosure. We keep information only as long as we need it for a lawful purpose, then take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.

Access, correction and complaints

You can ask to see or correct the personal information we hold about you. To make a request or a privacy complaint, contact us through our contact page starting your message with "Privacy request", and we'll respond within a reasonable time. If you're not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner at privacy.org.nz.
